The Best Seat in the House

Well, the best seats in the house are those placed around the poker tables here in the Amazon Room. But if you aren't actually playing in the Main Event a good place to watch the action is up in the Milwaukee's Best Light No Limit lounge. And I don't mean the action at the TV table--the lounge extends out toward the main playing area and gives savvy spectators a bird's eye view (well, a low-flying bird's eye view) of the entire room.

Why stand along the rail craning to see the action at a single table when you can sit on padded stool up in the lounge, letting your eyes roam over the field, while enjoying a cold beverage? Right now there are only a handful of people taking advantage of these seats, which seems a bit of a shame.
